    Ah yes, you know what’s better than a taxi driver? A taxi driver who relies on a camera with a limited field of vision, experiences input and video lag, and receives none of the tactile sensations that allow drivers to gauge road conditions.

    Tesla would not be the first robotaxi company to use this method. In fact, it’s an industry standard. It was previously reported that Cruise, the robotaxi company owned by General Motors, was employing remote human assistants to troubleshoot when its vehicles ran into trouble (the vehicles appear to have run into trouble every four to five miles). Google’s Waymo is also thought to employ the same practice, as does Zoox, the robotaxi firm owned by Amazon.

    Ah, the old mechanical Turk trick. This time with chance of man slaughter.

          To be fair, it’s really hard to tell what you were saying. It took a few re-reads to parse your comment into something that makes sense.

            its simple the onion is shit now and they are owned by totally different people now so basing something of the onion does not mean the same thing anymore.

              Sentences, man. Run-on sentences make people’s heads hurt. I eventually got your message, but without reasonable punctuation, most readers just see a jumble of loosely-connected words.

    How about hiring people to drive the taxis… Instead of hiring people to remotely drive the taxi… What exactly would be the difference??? Except actually having the driver in the vehicle is proven to work…

      Because latency and removing the personal accountability of not wanting to die in a car crash are a feature!

      No, it’s not. Many companies are doing this monitoring at 10:1 ratios. It hurts my brain that so many people don’t understand what a massive industry changing number that is. Even at early maturity these systems can reduce workforce by 90%.

    Anyone driving any kind of Tesla is a traitor to humanity. If people start spitting on you in public you know why.
